How To List a Property Fast Without Leaving The Office

Every instruction won is a little victory, but agents know as soon as the contract is signed, the seller will want their property promoted far and wide. And here’s the rub. The backbone of every good property listing is an ever-growing suite of assets that work across both print and digital media. 

That involves a return visit to the property and a couple of hours blocked out of the diary to travel there, measure up, take photos and, increasingly, create a 360-degree virtual tour. Once back in the office, there’s the job of sifting through the images, selecting those that need editing and either attempting the tweaks yourself or liaising with a third-party to obtain a set of polished photos. 

In an ideal world, this would be a fulfilling, creative task that allows the agent to craft an eye-catching listing suitable for the portals, their own website, social media, window displays and brochures. In reality, it’s another thing on the ‘to do’ list that inevitably ends up rushed – especially if there are multiple instructions and new vendors enquiring when you’re coming to take photographs. 

Now it’s possible to list a property without leaving the office. Viewber can take over once a contract has been signed, leaving the agent free to concentrate on other, income-winning tasks or mandatory matters, such as compliance and AML. 

Adding a full listing pack to the Viewber stable was a logical step. Our highly-skilled Viewbers have developed a thorough understanding of the home moving process and are prized for building a professional rapport with the people they encounter. 

As importantly Viewber services are all on demand, so we’ll do it when it suits your vendor, no diary clashes for you to iron out. 

Coupled with the wider adoption and availability of technology, Viewber was quickly able to increase the range of services it offers. Our full listing pack has a fixed fee for simple, straightforward budgeting per property, and encompasses the following elements: 

• Photographs: if you’re listing on portals, have a branch window, post to social media or update your own website, you’ll need a set of photographs. Our Viewber’s use professional-grade equipment to capture a property, both inside and out. Included in our standard service is one round of essential edits, such as blue sky replacement, and colour and tone amendments. We’ll take the time to find the most flattering angles at the property, pick the best-looking images, make edits, where appropriate, and send you a full, ready-to-publish set of photos directly to your inbox. 

• Floorplans: nothing beats the clarity of a floorplan, especially when people have trouble imagining how a property flows in their mind’s eye. A Viewber floorplan is created using accurate and detailed measurements of every room.  

• 360° virtual tours: if you want to offer movers the next-best thing to an in-person viewing, a 360° virtual tour is a must. Research repeatedly shows that listings with a 360° virtual tour have better engagement and result in more genuine enquiries. Our Viewbers have the training, equipment and software needed to create 360° virtual tours on your behalf.  

• Property details: it’s only natural for our Viewbers to become familiar with a property they are measuring and capturing, so we will also send agents a set of property details. Our write ups can be used as is, or they can be quickly edited to fall in line with an agent’s house style. 

List with new-found speed 

A keen, eager vendor won’t appreciate any hold up when it comes to photography and floorplans. That’s why busy agents - especially those involved in a multi-agency scenario – find Viewber’s services crucial when time is of the essence. Viewber’s advantage is that we work on demand, seven days a week and send the full listing pack by email to the agent within two days of the Viewber visiting. Therefore, if an agent takes on a property on a Thursday, a Viewber can attend on a Saturday and the agent can usually make a listing live by close of business on Monday. 

List a property outside of your normal area 

Using Viewber to create listing packs allows agents to take on properties outside of their usual geographical catchment. The Viewber network covers the entire UK and there will be someone free to visit a property in any given city, town or village, saving the agent multiple journeys.  

Our listing pack service works in perfect conjunction with our viewing and property visit service. A Viewber local to a property you have taken on can conduct accompanied viewings, perform property inspections and hand keys over on your behalf. This way, agents benefit from an extra instruction on their books without any of the property visit hassle. In fact, agents using Viewber can list and market a property to the point of offer without leaving their desk! 

Viewbers who proudly represent your brand & business values 

The reviews and feedback we receive have given hundreds of agents the confidence to send a Viewber on their behalf.  We vet, train and support our network so they seamlessly integrate with the client’s they work for. 

As a result of partnering with Viewber, agents gain more desk time, more days when they’re able to leave work on time, more weekends off and more clients thanks to new-found flexibility. If you would like to try our listing pack service, contact Viewber today.
